Notes
Notes:
After frying the prawns you will have the leftover fried masala stuck onto the pan. Don’t discard it, instead add that to the sauce along with fried prawns. That will give a new level of taste to the dish.
Be careful while adding salt to the marination as well as the sauce, as we are adding soya sauce in both.
Serve this with noodles, pasta, fried rice or rotis.
